Graduate Student Outreach: Natalia Parra Alvarez,

“The graduate ministry has changed my life. When I first started grad school at Michigan Tech, I felt a little lonely, all my good friends had graduated and were moving on with their lives while I had just committed to at least three more years of school. I visited St. Al’s, often praying for new friends and searching for motivation to continue with my graduate degree. I found the graduate ministry and have met other graduate students and have continued to grow in my relationship with God. I have met wonderful people who are always willing to encourage other grad students in their journey and have the desire to seek holiness in their daily lives.”
